| Title: | Douze Grandes Etudes || No. 8 |
| Dedication: | SON AMI F. LISZT |
Second German edition, in which the text of GE1 was subject to a quite detailed review:
-
a part of mistakes was corrected, e.g., necessary accidentals were added (e.g., a
of e2 in bar 38, 
of c2 in bar 40, as well as unobvious ones, such as a 
before c2 in bar 60 and a before e3 in bar 80), inaccuracies were corrected, e.g., in the slurring in bars 20, 34 (wrongly), a 
mark in bars 34 and 71 and slurs in the L.H. in bars 51 and 56 were added; -
cautionary accidentals were revised, e.g., added before b and b3 in bar 14, as well as b1 in bar 48;
-
added – most probably wrongly – before e1 in bar 76 and e2 in bar 80;
- some changes ordering the text were introduced, sometimes wrongly, e.g., change of the A-d semibreves to minims in bar 48.
Own inaccuracies were not avoided, e.g., some of the staccato dots in bars 29 and 31, as well as in bars 39-40 were omitted.
